Answer:

6P6 = 720

Explanation:

The notation nPk is shorthand for ...

n!/(n-k)!

So your expression

6P6 = 6!/(6-6)! = 6!/0! = 720/1 = 720

_____

The ! is pronounced "factorial." The factorial of a positive integer is the product of that integer and every smaller positive integer. 0! is defined as 1.

6! = 6·5·4·3·2·1 = 720
